Post-Accident DOT Testing

Post-Accident DOT Testing

What to Do When Your Employee Is Involved In an Accident

The Department of Transportation (DOT) requires certain employers to conduct
mandatory drug and alcohol testing after an employee is involved in an
accident. This applies to the six agencies that fall under the DOT safety-sensitive
umbrella ( FMCSA, FAA, FTA, USCG, FRA, and PHMSA), as well as Federal,
State, and local governments, private and for-hire motor carriers, churches,
and other civic entities. In order to remain DOT compliant—and avoid
having your business operations temporarily or permanently shut down—you
must complete DOT certified post-accident drug testing and post-accident
alcohol testing..

At FastestLabs®, we offer a complete range of DOT testing services,
including post-accident DOT testing. Our comprehensive emergency and post-accident
drug and alcohol tests follow strict protocols and our certified collectors
are up-to-date on DOT-compliant testing procedures and equipment. We can
even come to you, offering reliable mobile DOT testing with the same speed
and accuracy as our on-location tests.

to remain DOT compliant. Drug testing must occur within 32 hours after
the incident, while alcohol testing must be carried out within 8 hours.

How Fastest Labs Can Help

to help you stay DOT compliant and avoid having your registration revoked.
We provide fast, accurate post-accident DOT testing services, including
urine tests, saliva tests, and certified breath alcohol tests. Our team
is knowledgeable about the process and has received thorough training
on proper DOT testing protocols. We can help you with post-accident testing,
as well as the next steps, such as submitting results, referral for evaluation
and treatment, and conducting return-to-duty and follow-up testing.
